Leto is linebred for balance, level topline, good angulation, fluid side movement, some length of leg, bite, dark eyes, showiness, extroverted personality, "clean" look and clean movement. At two and a half, his littermates and he still look alike. On the down side, while masks are dark, they're also broken and ears are lighter. They also grey early ... but live long. His head is correct though a broader topskull would be better. He rarely shows ear but likes to keep them folded or flat back. Frequently Leto's relatives have been late-bloomers as he himself seems to be. Only now (after finishing) is he beginning to muscle-up. Mostly light nails but high round feet. He's very well-knit and doesn't tire easily. Always 'heads up' in the ring.

Line bred on: Oak Ridge, Peach Farm and Ch. Willowledge Caesar III.

Accomplishments: BOB from puppy class (6-9 mos) over three specials, by Mr. J.D. Jones who told me he gave it to him for his good movement, owner-handled. Finished with a handler in 5 weekends about the time he turned two.
